What a baby Steny Hoyer sounds like

Listen!

I hear something off in the distance, don't you?

It's getting closer!

Why, it's the WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHmbulance again!

Most of you will agree that from day one Bush and Cheney should have both been impeached. I advocated it in early 2001 (publicly, no less) because of their illegal actions then. You'd think that now with the Democrats supposedly controlling Congress, you'd at least be able to get Cheney impeached. But nooooo! Look at the type of leadersheep the Democrats have.

The DLC's Steny Hoyer is the House Democratic "leader." The once-effective lawmaker has been reduced lately to repeating DLC mantras so fluently that you almost want to shit all over your computer screen so you can't read his nonsense. Hoyer the Destroyer literally spends more effort attacking other Democrats than he does going after the Republicans.

Lately, we received some hopeful news when Dennis Kucinich announced he was going to get the House to vote this month on his effort to impeach Cheney for lying about whether Iraq had links to weapons of mass destruction and Al-Qaeda as an excuse to start a war. I thought there was a good chance Cheney might actually get impeached if the measure was actually voted on. (Convicting Cheney would be much harder, but at least impeachment would bring Cheney's villainy to the frontburner again.) But now we'll likely never know, because Hoyer is leading the effort to block Cheney's impeachment.

You read that right. A Democrat is actually trying to block impeachment articles against Cheney from even being voted on. Worse, Hoyer's motion to block Kucinich's effort is likely to pass!

The Democrats won a mandate from voters last year to put the kibosh on the Bush/Cheney machine. But now it's the Democrats' so-called leaders who are waving the soiled underpants flag of surrender.

Hoyer said there's more important things for Congress to worry about, like "change of policy in Iraq." Of course I'd support that, but the Democrats missed their chance to do that too. There are very few things that are more important than upholding the Constitution - which the Bush regime has subverted again and again. Shouldn't public officials be held accountable when they do wrong? If a wingnut gets elected President in 2008, they'll feel encouraged to subvert America's constitutional order just because Bush and Cheney got away with it. So impeachment has to be pursued to its conclusion.

Steny, I knew you had become useless, but not in quite such a spectacular fashion.
